Healthy Travel: Going to NYC? You Could Go on a Jogging Tour (Excercise + Tourism!)

It can sometimes be difficult to stay active on vacation--especially when you don't know the area and are away from your trusty gym membership. But if you're visiting New York City, these smart girls can show you around and help you get some exercise...

How cool is this concept: Say you're on a business trip in NYC, or just going for fun. Maybe you're a little nervous to go running in a big, unfamiliar city solo (I am!), but you'd love to get some exercise--then check out this awesome venture created by four friends, and jogging-lovers, in NYC. It's called Prettygirl City Tours, and for $18, you can get a sweet city tour, and a running buddy, too.

From their web site: "You haven't heard of a jogging tour before? It's something like a walking tour, but a little faster. We aren't out to win any races, but our tours are meant to be taken in sneakers. Picking up the pace lets us cover more ground! We limit group size so that everyone can hear what's going on and stay challenged, and no one is left behind... Our tours aren't just about historical names and dates. We know all about art, culture, and the stories behind the places you'll see with us."
